Press Reviews
"They're called DEMENTIA, but they're far fromdysfunctional. In fact, this band has the goods andknows what to do with 'em, which is evident intheir kick ass live show. The quintet playsaggressive, heavy, yet from the heart music, and youget more than your money's worth. See their coolwebsite for details."* Gerri Miller, METAL EDGE magazineSure they "Embrace" many classic metal elements,but they flirt with much of what is new and excitingabout metal today. These guys aren't rookies, they'veall got impressive resumes and they've brought allthat expierience to bat on "Embrace This Misery".The new songwriting and singing are especiallystandout on the new CD.* Jerry Perry, Publisher/Editor-In-Chief ofAlive-N-Kicking "Dementia is the hardest-working, hottesttalent, and probably the nicest band inSacramento. I can't even go into a 7-Elevenwithout seeing a Dementia member outworking to promote the band. I'd sign themon class alone."* - Kylee Brooks, disc jockey KRXQ 98.5 FM"You guys are good. You put on a greatshow. You have great stage presence, itkind of reminds me of myself..."*- Eric Peterson, guitarist of TESTAMENT"Definitely a band to watch for...They workwell with each other and have a distinct sound."*- Joe Johnston, owner/engineer P.C.NorthRecording Studio"You guys are exactly what this world needs.You know, hard music that you can f**k to."*- Lydia Ponce - music critic, promoter, producer - Hollywood, CA |
